You need to book Justin for your wedding!! We got married 10/14/23 and hiring him was one of our best choices that we made in the planning process! He absolutely crushed it and kept our dance floor packed until 11pm, no one wanted to take any of the shuttles back to the hotel! We got a range of compliments from all different age groups of how great of a job he did. He really catered to the crowd and used his expansive knowledge of music to keep our guests engaged and excited. The planning proccess with him was seamless and easy and he really listened to everything we had to say and guided us with how the process worked. We were referred to him by a friend and so happy that we were! So happy that the was part of our special day!

Drew and his team were freaking awesome! They really were the life of the party and had our somewhat difficult guests up dancing all night long! During the planning Drew was so easy to work with and covered everything, even the stuff we didn't think about! We also booked our photo booth through Boston Entertainment Group and it was so much fun! If you are looking for a dj, you NEED to book with these guys!

Awarded Best of Zola
We hired Arthur to dj at our July 8th wedding. While our families are Greek, we had a number of non-Greek guests and wanted to make sure everyone had music they would like. Arthur did a great job mixing Greek and American music and reading the crowd throughout the night. The Photo Booth was a massive hit and we loved the video highlight reel he sent us a few days later too. 100% would recommend!

Mercier Music Weddings

5.0

Mapleville, RI
  • DJ
  • Starts at $1,500
  • Serves Boston, MA

My philosophy for music is, "You bring the dancers and I'll bring the music".  I'll take your requests and my years of experience and turn your wedding into something your guests will never forget.  In order to play the right song at the right time, it's all about observation and knowing your crowd.  As I am selecting and mixing songs, I am attentive to everyone's reaction. Years of performing gives me an understanding of action and reaction... an easier way to put it is, I know how to rock the socks off your wedding!

Awarded Best of Zola
I can not recommend Shane enough, from the moment we reached out to him during the planing process until the day itself, Shane was beyond helpful! He really was a vital part in making our day perfect. And the wedding video he created captured the day beautifully, we can’t stop watching it! The best wedding dj & videographer you could ask for!!!

Stop your search now and hire Ryan Todt as your DJ! If we could give him more than 5 stars we absolutely would! We had such a wonderful experience working with Ryan. From day one he was incredibly attentive and worked with us for hours to make sure he understood what we wanted. He checked in often with us to make sure we were doing well throughout the process. He even mixed our first dance song for us when we wanted some cuts put in and it came out BEAUTIFULLY! He kept the dance floor full the whole night, and listened very clearly to what we wanted/didn't want for the night. He made some incredible mixes that we and our guests loved. He is incredibly talented! He made our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception run flawlessly, which helped make our day absolutely perfect. We could not have been more happy with Ryan as our DJ! Thank you Ryan!!

Lindsay Straw: Singer & Acoustic Guitarist

4.9

Somerville, MA
  • Solo performer
  • Starts at $375
  • Serves Boston, MA

Mixing evocative Celtic songs with upbeat Americana folk and acoustic covers, Lindsay Straw delivers a soundtrack in a warm alto voice with intricate guitar and Irish bouzouki accompaniment. With over 250 weddings under her belt, she loves working with couples to provide the perfect folky playlist tailored to their tastes and needs. She provides her own sound gear and can accommodate new song requests. She's open to weddings all over New England.

Lindsay was a highlight of our wedding reception. She is very talented and can play many different types of music. Our wedding was held at a camp in central Massachusetts and we wanted a folk acoustic feel, which she can play perfectly. Lindsay learned our favorite song for our first dance, and had everyone in tears for when we danced with our dads. She was so helpful in recommending songs for specific moments of our wedding and very accommodating and flexible when setting timelines for our day. From the beginning Lindsay was very professional and quick to respond to emails. One thing we were most impressed with was her ability to get to know us and what we wanted for music on our wedding day. She played a good balance of crowd favorites and their original songs, which gave our reception a unique and personal touch. They were naturals at feeling out the vibe of our venue/guests and setting the tone that we wanted. Lindsay was a perfect fit for our reception and we are so happy to have booked her. The music was unique and loved by all of our guests. People were up dancing and sitting, enjoying the lovely music. As a same-sex couple, Lindsay and Jordan were a safe and comfortable option for us.

Jordan Tirrell-Wysocki Trio

5.0

Canterbury, NH
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Boston, MA

Want to set a mellow, thoughtful mood for your ceremony? Or to entertain your guests with lively fiddle music during your cocktail hour? Perhaps you're looking for an alternative to the traditional wedding band, and you'd like to dance the night away to Celtic folk songs and foot-stompin' fiddle tunes? Or all of the above? Jordan has been performing at weddings for over a decade, solo and with bands of varying size to fit your budget.

Awarded Best of Zola
I would recommend Jordan and his band again and again!! Working with Jordan was so seamless and wonderful!! He took great care in understanding our vision for our wedding and got on board immediately, asking all the right questions so he could deliver flawlessly. We hired the whole trio and oh my gosh, they are truly exceptional!! AND have an incredible range, meaning they can bring the soul to any event you throw at them. We asked Jordan and his trio to play background instrumental for cocktail hour, upbeat dance music after dessert, and we also asked for them to play for our ceremony, which melted the hearts of everyone in attendance. The presence, ease, and humility Jordan brings is unique among musicians, and the mark of a great one. If you have the chance to book Jordan TW, do not miss it! We could not have found anyone better to create with! Pure magic. We are so grateful!
